Occupational Group Therapy

Occupational Therapy Groups

For children and youth, OT can help support skills development at home and school. Support for skills development can look like: fine motor, printing, gross motor, self regulation, sensory regulation, sleep routines, hygiene, social skills, etc. OT’s also consider how to modify task or the environment to make it a just right challenge.

 

Fine Motor Groups

Our printing programs are customized to fit the unique fine motor needs of our participants. The programs are led by a skilled, registered Occupational Therapist. These sessions

take place in a group setting, providing support and fun for each child.

 

 

Insurance coverage may apply. If you or your child has funding through

the Ontario Autism Program (OAP), our services may also be covered.
